Welcome

2006 was a very exciting year to say the least. With the release of "Bending The Line", my first solo album in several years, I quickly established a new and dedicated fan base. Songs like 'Coming Over' and 'Traveling Show' have become fan favourites and always spark audience participation during the choruses at my live performances.
In December I recorded a "Live & Unplugged" concert / 12 song album titled "To The Core" and it is currently available, so if you'd like a copy, just contact me.
As the album title implies, the songs and my performance are free of the multi-layered packaging, and high-tech studio embellishments. What it does have is a very real, down to earth, and heartfelt grittiness to it. It's raw and it's truthful . . .the songs will stir your emotions, paint pictures in your mind, and touch you in a way that few albums can.

The downside however was that during the performance I was experiencing monitor issues and was unable to hear myself very well. If you've ever been in that same situation then you'd know it can be a real struggle just to keep your intonation. I managed to get through it and all in all the feedback has been very positive. The energy of my performance and the enthusiasm of the audience helped to make up for some of the rough edges.

I am currently in the studio recording and co-producing my forthcoming as of yet untitled album. Some new songs have been posted on Myspace . 8 of the 11 songs are now complete and I'm hoping to have the album released by early December.
Arranging & Producing with my good friend and brotha Jamie " Preme Diesel" Kuse...has been nothing short of awesome! The ideas flow like water and every session is fun and productive. We've also brought in a parade of super talented backing players from Chris Chok on Piano, Jim Kwan on Hammond Organ, to the incredible Aileen de la Cruz on Backing Vocals. I'm very proud to share just a small part of what I consider to be...my Masterpiece album. Please feel free to send me your comments...or if you would like to be notified when the album is complete.

Scott's live performance has never been better or tighter! The audience feedback was sensational!
